33 ... coming soon.

Next Monday I'll be starting on a new composition, based on material from Twenty-Seven. The latter half of it has always appealed to me. I might try and work in some material from the tuba solo in Thirty. I'll shoot for seven days again, though after the eleven days it took for Thirty-Two, I'm obviously in no rush. A fully composed piece is a fully composed piece, no matter how you look at it.

I wish I had better reasoning for neglecting my compositional promises, but I've just been avoiding it. It's something I need to do, for sure. I may do a writing day this weekend, possibly about John Cage, since there is quite a bit to say about him and his ideology is one of the reasons why I chose to study music at the ripe age of 19.

So, my few faithful readers, get your bookmarks, RSS feeds and refresh button ready. I know I'll have a hard time keeping up with the Daily Composer when classes start at the end of August, so let's see if I can get some writing done before then.
